Il volume è dedicato ad Armando Testa (1917-1992), geniale creativo, protagonista della cultura visiva contemporanea e creatore di celebri icone entrate ormai nel nostro immaginario collettivo. Dal taglio monografico, il volume - partendo dalle 17 opere entrate nelle collezioni del museo Ca’ Pesaro con la donazione di Gemma De Angelis Testa - ricostruisce la sua produzione fin dagli esordi torinesi, mettendo in luce anche aspetti inediti. Ampio spazio è dedicato alle pubblicità, alle campagne promozionali e ai loghi per importanti aziende - come Lavazza, Sasso, Carpano, Simmenthal e Lines - che hanno accompagnato diverse generazioni di spettatori, artisti e creativi, così come lalle animazioni per la televisione realizzate negli anni ‘50 e ‘60, con personaggi che sono rimasti nella storia della pubblicità e della cultura internazionale: dal digestivo Antonetto (1960) alla celebre sfera rossa sospesa sulla mezza sfera del Punt e Mes, da Caballero e Carmencita per il caffè Paulista di Lavazza (1965) agli immaginifici abitanti del pianeta Papalla per Philco (1966), da Pippo, l’ippopotamo azzurro dei pannolini Lines (1966-67), alle pubblicità per l’olio Sasso (1968) e la Birra Peroni (1968). Non viene poi dimenticata l’attività legata ai temi sociali cui si è dedicato, come le campagne per Amnesty International, per il referendum sul divorzio, per la povertà e la fame nel mondo, solo per citarne alcune. Ma il volume non ricorda solo l’Armando Testa conosciuto: attraverso i saggi accolti, viene offerto uno sguardo complessivo alla sua lezione e al suo lascito artistico, con un’attenzione particolare alle sue qualità e alle sue felici intuizioni come pittore, come scultore, come disegnatore, come creatore di infinite suggestioni condensate, magicamente, in una sintesi inaspettata.

Ca’ Pesaro opens the new 2024 exhibition season with a major exhibition dedicated to Armando Testa (1917-1992). Already present since December 2022 in the Venetian civic collections with 17 works, the creative genius from Piedmont will be the focus of a monographic exhibition that will allow people to discover and rediscover previously unseen aspects of his production.
From his Turin beginnings at the Vigliardi Paravia Typographic School and with the teaching of Ezio D’Errico, the exhibition aims to reconstruct the artistic path of a protagonist of visual culture contemporary, creator of famous icons that have entered our collective imagination for years.
His masterpieces are the offspring of a plurality of expressive languages, experimented during his more than 30-year career, whose modernity is today a source of inspiration for contemporary artists and which has led aesthetics scholar Gillo Dorfles to call him a “global visualiser.”
Text in English and Italian.
